About
Positioned on a high floor of Norton Tower in the heart of Birmingham city centre, this spacious and recently improved two-bedroom apartment combines generous accommodation, far-reaching city views and a location within easy reach of some of Birmingham’s best-known cultural, business and leisure destinations.
The apartment is currently occupied by a tenant paying £1,300 per calendar month, creating an attractive proposition for investors from day one.
The tenant is expected to move out in approximately three months, which also opens the door to owner-occupiers and first-time buyers planning a future move into the city centre.
The living and dining room is particularly well proportioned, with large windows drawing in excellent natural light and framing elevated views across Birmingham.
There is ample room for both lounge and dining furniture, making the space feel far more substantial than many modern city-centre apartments.
The separate fitted kitchen provides extensive cupboard and worktop space together with appliances and a useful breakfast bar. Its elevated position also gives the kitchen its own city outlook.
Both bedrooms are genuine doubles. The principal bedroom is especially generous and benefits from substantial wardrobe storage, including two separate fitted wardrobe areas.
The second bedroom also offers excellent proportions, giving the apartment flexibility for sharers, guests, home working or future owner occupation.
A major recent improvement is the brand-new contemporary bathroom, finished with full-height tiling, a large walk-in shower area, modern vanity storage and clean contemporary fittings.
Norton Tower sits within Birmingham’s Civic Centre area, placing the apartment close to Centenary Square, the Library of Birmingham, the icc, Symphony Hall, Birmingham rep, Brindleyplace and Broad Street.
Grand Central, New Street Station, the Bullring and wider city-centre amenities are also within convenient reach. For an investor, the existing £1,300 pcm tenancy provides immediate income.
For a first-time buyer or owner-occupier, the anticipated tenant departure in approximately four months creates an unusual opportunity to secure a spacious, furnished two-bedroom city-centre home while planning ahead for occupation.
